Square Meal review of Baltic:

This cooly minimalist restaurant & bar has achieved the seemingly impossible: it’s made eastern European food fashionable. Baltic offers wintery, carb-rich fare such as a hearty portion of goose leg with sauerkraut that, with its crispy skin & fork-tender flesh, really hits the spot. But the kitchen does not always scale such heights & an over-salted starter of quail with spiced bacon & kasza (polish buckwheat), & a tough piece of salt beef accompanying otherwise pleasant potato dumplings, beetroot & horseradish, suggest that reader comments of ‘impeccable’ food are not always merited. No quibble with the drinks list, though, which features great cocktails & a reasonable selection of wines (albeit very few from eastern Europe, oddly). It’s with the mad vodkas, though, which range from grain to potato, that Baltic really comes into its own. Service, depending on the luck of the draw, can be either sweet or scatty.
